Progressive facial asymmetry resulting from condylar osteochondroma – A case report detailing the resection, subsequent orthognathic intervention and custom joint replacement

We discuss a 37 year old male – who presented with marked facial asymmetry and signs/symptoms suggestive of condylar hyperplasia. Imaging confirmed a large exophytic growth arising from the right mandibular condylar head. Treatment included tumour resection, orthognathic intervention and total joint...

description We discuss a 37 year old male – who presented with marked facial asymmetry and signs/symptoms suggestive of condylar hyperplasia. Imaging confirmed a large exophytic growth arising from the right mandibular condylar head. Treatment included tumour resection, orthognathic intervention and total joint replacement. The clinical presentation, pathology and treatment, along with a brief discussion are described in this report.
